3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Elevated Temperature Behavior of Bagasse and Human Hair Fiber‐Reinforced Fly Ash Geopolymer Composites

Engineering Reports
This study investigates the thermo‐mechanical performance of fly ash‐based geopolymer composites reinforced with bagasse and human hair fibers at varying fiber contents (1%, 1.5%, and 2% by weight). Composites were exposed to elevated temperatures (200°C,

Fermentation of animal components in strict carnivores: a comparative study with cheetah fecal inoculum [PDF]

, 2012
The natural diet of felids contains highly digestible animal tissues but also fractions resistant to small intestinal digestion, which enter the large intestine where they may be fermented by the resident microbial population.

Substrate Stress Relaxation Regulates Cell‐Mediated Assembly of Extracellular Matrix

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Silicone‐based viscoelastic substrates with tunable stress relaxation reveal how matrix mechanics regulates cellular mechanosensing and cell‐mediated matrix remodelling in the stiff regime. High stress relaxation promotes assembly of fibronectin fibril‐like structures, increased nuclear localization of YAP and formation of β1 integrin‐enriched ...

Use of animal fiber-reinforcement in construction materials: A review

Case Studies in Construction Materials
Although natural fibers (NFs), among which animal fibers (AFs) are found, have been used for millennia as reinforcement scheme of some construction materials (CMs), it is not until recent decades when scientific studies have been carried out to ...

Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.

Invalid Forensic Science Testimony and Wrongful Convictions [PDF]

, 2009
This is the first study to explore the forensic science testimony by prosecution experts in the trials of innocent persons, all convicted of serious crimes, who were later exonerated by post-conviction DNA testing.

EFFECT OF FLY ASH, HUMAN HAIR FIBER AND PHOSPHOGYPSUM ON PROPERTIES OF EXPANSIVE SOILS

, 2019
Nearly 51.8 million hectares of land area in India are covered with Expansive soil. The property of these expansive soils is that they are very hard when in dry state, but they lose all of their strength when in wet state.

Shape‐Morphing Nanoengineered Hydrogel Ribbons as Hemostats

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a self‐assembling, shape‐morphing nanoengineered hydrogel ribbon system that rapidly forms porous aggregates in situ for efficient hemostasis in trauma and surgical applications. Abstract Rapid and effective hemorrhage control remains a major challenge in trauma and surgical care, particularly for complex or noncompressible wounds.
